The first thing to decide as a couple once you have gotten engaged is which venue to choose to host the occasion. With so many different locations to choose from, there are many things to consider when making sure you select the one which best suits you and your needs. The following article contains a number of hints and tips as to how to undertake the process of selecting a venue in the most efficient way.
The first thing to consider is how many guests will be attending your wedding and if they can be comfortably accommodated at the venue you are looking at. Everything else about the venue could be perfect, but this is useless if it simply can not hold the right amount of people. Once you decide on a guest list, you can eliminate events that will be unsuitable in terms of size. As well as getting rid of the smaller ones, it is also important that the venue is not too large, 50 people inside a venue that holds 600 will leave plenty of room but will not feel particularly personal or intimate. Some venues are able to offer multiple rooms of different sizes, leaving you able to pick the one that you feel best suits your guest hosting needs.
You should also consider if you wish to have the wedding ceremony itself at the location. Many avenues now offer this service, and it can save extra unwanted hassle and time in moving your guests from the location of the ceremony to that of the reception. A venue being civil licensed can have a major impact on the smooth running on the day if the traditional church wedding is not for you.
One you have a list of venues that are a suitable size, it is advisable to contact the terms directly for them to provide you with informational material and a better outline of what exactly it is they have to offer. With so many different things to organize for the day itself, you do not want to be visiting too many potential venues, and by getting them to bring the information directly to you, you will again be able to eliminate venues that are less suitable or not quite in keeping with your ideal wedding location.
An important consideration is whether or not the location is able to offer enough accommodation to your guests that live further away or want to spend the night and travel home in the morning. It is not ideal for your guests to be moving between the venue and a separate hotel once it ends, after many hours of celebration and mermentment some many be in no fit state to travel further than upstairs! Make sure you ask your guests if they would be staying the night early on, so you are able to draw up a rough estimate of how many you will need to accommodate. If you have a wedding planner, they will work with you on such issues and anything else that needs to be considered before narrowing down your choices further.
By the time you reach this stage you should have a shortlist of possible venues that fit your needs. This is the time where you should begin to arrange visiting the locations, to see them for yourself and be able to have a more personal conversation about what it is that offer and general logistics of the event and how the day itself will run. By doing the work leading up to this stage you will ensure that you do not waste your time visiting substandard venues, all of the places left on your list by now will be capable of delivering you an excellent day. By visiting all that are remaining you can get the last extra bits of information that turns a great occasion into the perfect occasion.
